I see the child in the frame
Wish I could tell him: You're not your mistakes
If God gives you something you don't think you want
Don't you forget just how lucky you are

Can't catch the tears from your eyes
Daddy might not make it home every night
I'm always with you, no matter how far
Don't you forget just how lucky you are

Ooh-ooh, even the bad times might make you laugh
Ooh-ooh, live every day like it might be your last
You'll be alright
It will be alright

I know it feels like a dream
Faking a smile while you rip back the seams
No way to measure the pain in your heart
But don't you forget just how lucky you are

Ooh-ooh, even the bad times might make you laugh
And ooh-ooh, live every day like it might be your last
You'll be alright
It will be alright

Mm
It will be alright
Alright

Flowers don't grow in the dark
You can't make a wish without looking at stars
With all of the bruises and all of the scars
Don't you forget just how lucky you are
I won't forget just how lucky we are
